CHAPTER 3
The night finally came as the Straw Hat pirates got their costumes on.
Zoro, Chopper, Luffy, and Robin were waiting for the others to finish.
Sanji walked out of his room and grinned.
He wore his sunglasses and a white suit with a rose attached to it.
"Hmph, looks just like your other stupid costume."
Zoro said grinning.
"What was that, lettuce head? You wanna get kicked?"
"Do you wanna get cut in half, datboard?"
Sanji and Zoro were about to fight until a door opened and they turned to see Usopp.
Usopp was wearing a viking helmet and a large fake hammer in his right hand.
"BANZAI!" Usopp shouted while waving the hammer in the air.
Luffy and Chopper cheered as Usopp showed off his costume.
Franky walked out of his room and grinned to Usopp.
"Not bad."
Everyone looked at Franky and suddenly laughed.
"Oi Franky! I think the idea of a costume was to be something different?" Zoro said with a smirk.
Franky growled in reply and everyone continued laughing.
Another door opened and Nami walked out.
Everyone turned to her and their jaws dropped.
Nami stared at them in confusion and asked.
"What is it?"
"You said you weren't going to dress up!"
"I figured I might as well."
Nami had a black shirt on that had small white wings attached to the back on it, while she wore a black skirt and her usual shoes.
Sanji's eyes became hearts as he started complimenting Nami's outfit.
Luffy stared at Nami from behind everyone else and grinned.
"She looks cute."
Luffy thought happily as Nami smiled.
The group entered the town and the first person they saw was the man from earlier.
"Ah, so you did decide to dress up?"
Luffy nodded happily and grinned.
"Well then, have a great night." The man said and walked past them.
Robin quietly watched the man walk away.
The man turned around and grinned when he saw Robin watching him.
The man turned back around and walked away finally.
Robin turned around also and smiled as Luffy happily grinned.
"Where to first?"
"How about we just go to any random house?"
"That sounds good."
Zoro grunted from behind and Sanji turned to face him.
"What's the matter? Sad because you don't have a costume to wear?"
Zoro grunted again and said.
"Hmph, you don't need a costume to get treats. Watch."
Zoro walked over to a random house and knocked on the door.
An elderly lady walked out and asked.
"Yes?"
"Give me your candy." Zoro said with an evil glare.
The elderly lady stared at Zoro afraid and then threw a bowl filled with candy onto her step and slammed the door.
Zoro grinned and faced Sanji.
"See?"
"Yeah, you almost scared an old lady to death, Marimo."
"At least I got more than you."
"Wanna bet?"
"Bring it on!"
Zoro and Sanji ran down the street and started their little race to see who could get the most candy.
Everyone stared at them as they rounded a corner and were out of sight.
"Idiots. I bet you we'll have to go looking for Zoro later."
Nami said sighing.
Robin smiled and then looked at Chopper.
Robin bent down and whispered something in his ear.
Chopper happily nodded and walked over to Nami.
"Can we have partners so we can go a different way?"
Nami looked down at the reindeer and said.
"Okay, I'll go with Rob-"
"I'm going with Doctor-san."
"Okay…then Franky?"
"Going with Usopp."
Franky and Usopp walked down a different street and away from everyone else.
"You mean I'm stuck with Luffy!?"
Robin gave a small smile and said.
"It appears so."
Robin turned and walked down another street with Chopper close behind her.
"We'll meet you back on the ship later!" Chopper called back to Nami.
"Matte! Don't leave leave…me alone with Luffy…"
Nami stared after Robin and Chopper and then at Luffy who was staring at her.
"I bet this was planned out. Zoro must of made it, that's why he challenged Sanji, so Sanji would be away from me."
Nami sighed and Luffy tilted his head.
"Really? I thought Zoro and Sanji were having a race?"
"They are, but Zoro wanted to get Sanji away."
Luffy hit his palm with his fist and said.
"I get it now!"
Nami sighed and then stared at Luffy.
She finally noticed that he wasn't wearing his hat.
"Hey Luffy, where's your hat?"
"Huh? Oh, Robin said to leave Hat on the ship in case something happened."
"I see…"
Nami looked away from Luffy and thought to herself.
"I bet it was more of Zoro's plan."
After a few minutes of silence, Luffy suddenly grabbed Nami's arm and ran down the street.
Nami's eyes widened as Luffy pulled her along.
"Slow down Luffy!"
Luffy only grinned and then slowed down as he let go of Nami's hand.
Nami caught up with him and punched him in the head.
"Don't do that!"
"Sorry…"
An hour later, Nami and Luffy had two bags filled with candy.
Nami muttered something about Luffy's stomach and Luffy grinned.
"There sure are some nice people here. They gave us all their candy."
"That's only cause you copied what Zoro did!"
"But I didn't know how to do it…"
"Idiot…"
Nami turned her head away from Luffy as they walked along a ledge near the ocean.
Nami looked at the moon and smiled.
"It sure is a nice night."
"…"
Nami turned around to look at Luffy who was silent.
"Luffy?"
Luffy looked at Nami and then said.
"Nami…"
"What?"
"I…think…"
"Hurry up and say it!"
Luffy looked into Nami's eyes and said.
"I like you."
In town, Zoro was hopelessly lost again.
He had surprisingly six bags of candies and was running around trying to find the ship.
"I probably beat Love Cook for sure. I now have to make sure he doesn't find Luffy and Nami."
Zoro turned down and street and ran down it.
Zoro grinned as he looked forward and saw the ship tied to the pier.
"I actually made it back without any help… that's strange…"
Zoro said as he reached the ship and climbed onto the deck.
A voice suddenly said. "What took you so long?"
Zoro gritted his teeth as he saw Sanji leaning against the mast with six bags filled with candy.
Sanji noticed how many bags Zoro had and narrowed his eyes.
"I guess the race didn't help, so now how about we fight?"
"Gladly."
The two idiots started to fight over the other one's bag of candy as the sound of katana against feet were heard all around.
Robin and Chopper had found Usopp and Franky and were heading back to the ship.
They each had only two bags of candy but they figured it was worth it to get Nami and Luffy alone.
"That was a great plan." Usopp said happily chewing a lollipop.
"It sure was." Chopper said smiling.
Robin fixed her hat as she smiled.
"I just hope that Mugiwara and Nami haven't been found by Sanji yet." Franky said catiously.
"Cook-san is on the ship." Robin said calmly as they suddenly heard Sanji and Zoro shouting at each other.
"I guess you're right." Usopp said.
The four of them climbed onto the deck as Sanji and Zoro continued to fight over the other's candy.
"Can you guys stop?" Franky said as he placed his bag with Zoro's.
"There. Now Zoro has more." Franky said and Zoro grinned.
"Hmph." Sanji said as reached into his pocket for his lighter.
He lit a cigarette and blew smoke out of his mouth.
"Where's Nami-san?"
"She's probably coming… maybe." Usopp added mysteriously.
Sanji eyed Usopp with narrowed eyes.
Usopp backed away and Sanji said.
"What did you guys do?"
Zoro grinned and they decided to tell Sanji their plan.
"NANI!? To get my Nami-san alone with Luffy!? I will never allow that! Don't worry Nami-san! I'm comi…"
Sanji started to say before Chopper tossed a pill into his open mouth.
"It's a harmless sleeping pill. You should wake up tomorrow at your normal time." Chopper stated as Sanji fell asleep.
Franky and Usopp dragged Sanji into his room and dropped him onto his bed.
Zoro was already asleep and Robin was reading as usual when Usopp and Franky came out of Sanji's room.
Chopper was counting his candy and Usopp and Franky joined him.
"That's the last interference." Franky said grinning and everyone awake smiled.
Nami stared at Luffy in surprise.
"What?"
"I… I like you, Nami. I like you a lot."
Nami silently stared at Luffy and then looked away.
Luffy continued to stare at her as she then started to walk away.
"Let's go Luffy. I'll need Chopper to check you to see if you're sick or something."
Nami said but what she was thinking was the exact opposite.
"He likes me! He really likes me! But… I can't tell him that I do or else…"
Nami's arm was suddenly grabbed and she was pulled toward Luffy by his arm.
"Luffy!"
Nami shouted as Luffy brought her close to him.
"Let me g…"
Nami stared in surprise as Luffy kissed her on the lips.
It wasn't a long one, but Nami still felt her heart beat faster.
"Luffy…"
"Nami… I really do like you."
"I know…"
Luffy let go of Nami and then walked past her.
"Now let's get back so I can show Usopp how much candy I got!"
Nami stared after Luffy and then snapped back into reality and ran after Luffy.
When she caught up with him, she suddenly noticed that he wasn't carrying the bags.
Nami turned around and saw the bags were where Luffy had kissed her.
"Um Luffy… the candy is over there."
"Yeah I know."
"So why aren't you getting it?"
Luffy looked at Nami and grinned.
He stopped walking and so did Nami.
Luffy then leaned in and kissed Nami again.
Nami closed her eyes and put her arms around his neck and started kissing Luffy back.
Luffy wrapped his arms around Nami's waist tightly as they stood there.
When they stopped kissing, Nami smiled when Luffy whispered in her ear.
"You're my candy."
Nami blushed but she didn't pay any attention to it.
She was too busy holding on to Luffy as they walked to the ship.
(ADD RULER HERE)
When Nami and Luffy got back on the ship, only Robin was still outside.
Robin looked over and smiled at the two.
"Had a good time?"
Nami and Luffy nodded and Robin closed her book and stood up.
"I think I'll go to sleep now. Good night." Robin said.
"Good night." Nami and Luffy said in unison.
Robin entered her room and the two were alone again.
Luffy yawned and sleepily said.
"Do you wanna go to bed too?"
Nami looked at Luffy and shook her head.
"I'd rather stay up a little longer with you."
Luffy grinned as Nami put her arms around Luffy's neck again.
"We probably won't sleep for a while."
Nami said as they leaned closer together.
"Good thing I'm wide awake now."
Nami and Luffy kissed each other as the moon sank lower into the horizon.
Unknown to them, there was someone watching them.
Standing on a roof top, the man that was the one who told them about Halloween was watching the two as they suddenly fell onto the deck with Nami on the top.
"They sure seem happy with their treat…"
The man said as suddenly, from his feet, shadows emerged from the ground and engulfed the man.
The shadows then disappeared and there stood Takai.
"Heh, now for the trick…"
Unfortunately for Takai, it was too late.
Strangely enough, Nami and Luffy had stayed awake all night while holding each other tightly.
The sun appeared and Takai grimaced.
"Never mind…"
Takai disappeared as the two lovers finally stood up and laughed at what they had done all night long.
"That was fun, Nami!" Luffy said happily.
"Uh huh." Nami said as she kissed Luffy again.
. Suge! Told ya, LuNa all the way!
NR: Happy Halloween! My favorite holiday!
Takai: Hey, I thought I'd get a better part.
NR: Yeah about that, I cut it.
Takai: T.T Why?
NR: Cause... it's better this way!
Takai: I'll give you five seconds.
NR: Gone. (runs away)
Note: Takai is one of my OC's and the only one who fits in with Halloween.
Now give me your candy. XD
